Continuous Identity for the AI era
Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security protects human, non-human, and AI identities at machine speed.
Transform identity into a continuous control plane
Adversaries increasingly target identities, requiring continuous evaluation and real-time enforcement.
Unified identity fabric across every environment
Get a continuous control plane for human, non-human, and AI identities across SaaS, cloud, endpoint, and hybrid environments. By centralizing telemetry across the CrowdStrike Falcon® platform, identity providers, and enterprise systems, CrowdStrike delivers the real-time visibility and context required to continuously evaluate access and stop identity-based attacks.
Zero standing privileges
Remove the adversary's window of opportunity. Dynamically grant privileges only when needed, then continuously validate context throughout the session to adjust or revoke privileges the moment conditions change.
Real-time, risk-based access control
Identity risk changes continuously — especially across AI-driven and hybrid environments. CrowdStrike dynamically evaluates identity context signals throughout the entire session, adapting access in real time as conditions change across hybrid environments.
One platform. Continuous Identity control.
Unlike fragmented identity and access tools, CrowdStrike Falcon® Next-Gen Identity Security delivers Continuous Identity — a real-time security model that continuously verifies trust across every identity, session, and environment. Powered by one platform and console, CrowdStrike delivers unified visibility, real-time enforcement, and cross-domain protection across identity, endpoint, cloud, and SaaS environments.

Identity Security
With 80% of our operations powered by SaaS, protecting our workforce’s identities is critical. CrowdStrike’s Identity Protection module has been a game changer, both for visibility and ease of use… it doesn’t just add a new layer of security, it enhances how all layers work together."
Erik Hart, CISO, Cushman & Wakefield
With the ability to detect service accounts, admin accounts and compromised passwords, CrowdStrike gave us instant visibility into our identities and user behavior."
Steve Tieland, Director of Corporate Security Operations, Pegasystems
We are very happy with the way it provides visibility and helps with baseline anomaly detection. Given that a lot of threats are identity-driven, you need to watch what your credentials are doing.”

FAQs
Continuous Access Evaluation Protocol (CAEP) is an open standard that enables access to be continuously evaluated during a session instead of relying on a one-time decision at login. It helps organizations adapt access in real time based on changing identity, device, threat, and business context.
CAEP matters because trusted access paths are now exploited at machine speed. Human, non-human, and AI identities span cloud, SaaS, workloads, endpoints, and hybrid environments, creating blind spots that adversaries can exploit when access is not continuously evaluated.
CrowdStrike uses CAEP to help secure human, non-human, and AI identities with real-time access control, continuous evaluation, and zero standing privileges across hybrid environments. CrowdStrike correlates identity, device, threat, and business context to make risk-aware access decisions as conditions change.
Traditional IAM and PAM solutions typically rely on point-in-time access decisions and periodic revalidation. CAEP is an open standard that enables identity and security systems to share risk signals in real time, allowing organizations to continuously evaluate access and dynamically grant, restrict, or revoke permissions as risk changes.
CrowdStrike correlates identity, device, threat, and business context signals to support real-time, risk-aware access decisions. This context helps determine whether access should continue, be reduced, require additional controls, or be revoked.
Organizations can schedule a free identity security risk review to evaluate their identity security posture. The review includes a detailed report and a one-on-one session with a CrowdStrike identity expert.
